It seems most people wanted it that way, and so that was the default. The M$ everything-looks-like-the-web approach is producing a population that thinks the 'browser' IS the net. If it doesn't look and act like IE, they are totally lost. Anyway, getting off my rant, you might check to see if you have to set up POP access as an option. Also check to see if you can adjust some of the parameters. H> For one, I can no longer telnet to my pop server on port 110, I have to H> use Kshowmail to go in and purge. Any non-K alternatives to this KDE H> crapola? My ISP recently changed authentication. Perhaps they did this at the same time as adding Spamassassin? Might need to talk with them.

You can use them for additional local filtering to greatly improve the false-positive problem. -- rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
